I think that 54 belongs to either Charlie Daughtry or Tom Whittrock. Can’t remember.

Whose is it and how much do they want for it?

In all seriousness, I have a hankering for a beat-up Goldtop with P90s.

He already sold it about 4-5 years ago iirc. It was part of his retirement fund.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Snowy’s guitar was a 57 w/PAFs...the P90 distressed gold top here is either a modded 52,53, ( likely given the shaved ABR) 54 or a 55,56, maybe 57 (not likely)

Well treating it like that, neither of them deserve it. :moresarc:

Yup. Grant, you are the benign king of this site. I, for one, would love to see a photo of the full collection. In my dreamworld, I imagine being invited to your house. I'd bring some nice stout or maybe a great bottle of single malt. We'd spend the evening playing tasty Gibsons through cranked, low watt, Fender amps and I would be a happy man.

Why do people get excited about a bunged up guitar?

Not bad GB....but then you threw in almost all the years the fifties had :lol:
